Chapter 152 Hijacking
Following the sound, Shen Yuan slowly walked behind Chen Lun.
Thinking of his husband, bedridden and on the verge of death, he gritted his teeth and decided to take the plunge…
After a long while, Chenlun let out a satisfied groan, then collapsed to the ground with a lewd grin on his face.
Finally, it was over. Shen Yuan let out a long sigh of relief, fumbled to light the candle again, and said coldly to Shen Lun on the ground, "I have done what I promised you. Now give me the prescription."
Chenlun licked his lips, still wanting more, and said weakly, "Go get some paper and pen."
Shen Yuan quickly summoned the executioner and ordered, "Quickly bring some paper and pen!"
The executioner hurriedly replied, "Yes, yes, yes... I'll go get it right away..."
As he was leaving, he glanced at the cell and saw Chenlu, his face flushed and his buttocks naked, and his lips twitched involuntarily…
This beautiful woman is so fond of men...?
With the Emperor being so stunningly beautiful, how could he possibly be interested in such a woman?
It must be because the Emperor has too many handsome men in his harem, and Consort Shen is simply too hungry!
However, if Shen Meiren had given him a look just now, he might have washed his bottom and served her...
Even if he's not the best, he's still a hundred times better than that disgusting thing...
The paper and pen were quickly retrieved, and Chenlun wrote down the prescription in detail as promised.
Shen Yuan glanced at the list and saw that the medicinal herbs were indeed the same ones he had brewed with his senior brother when treating the plague. He was overjoyed and immediately used his lightness skill to fly back to Chaoyang Palace.
But the Chaoyang Palace was already empty. Not only had Jiang Qingyan mysteriously disappeared from the bed, but everyone else had also vanished...
Shen Yuan cried out anxiously, "Husband! Empress! Where are you? I've found the cure for the plague!"
But after calling for a long time, there was still no response...
Shen Yuan then went to the other concubines' chambers, but still did not see any of them.
It wasn't until they reached the outside of the former Taihe Hall that they saw a large number of Yuan soldiers tightly surrounding the officials of all ranks in the palace.
Shen Yuan frowned. Why were the Yuan soldiers in the palace?
At this moment, Ling Feng suddenly appeared behind Shen Yuan and patted him on the shoulder.
Shen Yuan turned around abruptly and saw that it was Ling Feng who had come. He quickly asked, "Where did my husband and the others go? What's going on with these Yuan soldiers?"
Ling Feng pulled on Shen Yuan's sleeve and led him to a secluded spot, explaining, "The Yuan soldiers suddenly attacked the palace. The Empress fought them off alone for a long time. Seeing that the palace gates were about to be breached, I and the others went out to help. In the end, only Liang Cheng stayed by my husband's side to take care of her. But for some reason, Yuan Lie suddenly appeared in Chaoyang Palace, picked up my husband, and kidnapped him. That's why Liang Cheng hurriedly came out to inform us."
Shen Yuan clenched his fists and roared, "Yuan Lie is still alive! Why did he kidnap my husband? If he delays my husband's treatment, I will tear him to pieces and feed him to the dogs!"
Ling Feng gritted her teeth and said angrily, "Yuan Lie even used my husband as a hostage, forcing us to surrender! The Empress and the others were afraid that my husband would be harmed, so they had no choice but to let the Yuan soldiers tie them up and throw them into the Taihe Hall. Fortunately, he didn't notice me, so he took advantage of the chaos to hide in the shadows, thinking that after finding you, we could work together to find a way to rescue them."
Shen Yuan narrowed his eyes: "Yuan Lie is a wolf in sheep's clothing. We shouldn't have let him enter the palace with us in the first place!"
Ling Feng sighed, "It's too late to say anything now. Let's think of a solution quickly!"
After pondering for a moment, Shen Yuan said, "Go to Xia Kingdom and ask for reinforcements. Yun Yuxuan has been kidnapped, and they will definitely do everything in their power to rescue him."
Ling Feng asked in confusion, "And what about you?"
Shen Yuan touched the prescription on her chest, lowered her eyes, and said, "I must go save my husband; the plague can kill instantly..."
Ling Feng pursed his lips and gently patted Shen Yuan's shoulder. "Thanks. Take care of yourself. I'll be back soon."
Shen Yuan chuckled, "She is also my husband, why do you need to thank me? Go quickly, I need to go save my husband too..."
Inside the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Yuan Lie was holding the unconscious Jiang Qingyan, sitting upright on the dragon throne.
He sneered at Mo Ting and the others who were bound hand and foot below the stage, "Look, no matter where I am, I am the king! Whether it is Yuan Kingdom, Da'an, or my husband, they all belong to me, to me alone!"
Mo Ting glared at Yuan Lie and said angrily, "My husband is sick, let her go at once!"
Yuan Lie rolled his eyes at him, gently smoothed the stray hairs on Jiang Qingyan's forehead, and said coldly, "Of course I know she's sick. It's just typhoid fever. It's not like I haven't had this disease before. But my military doctor is much better at treating this disease than your female doctor in Da'an. Once he arrives, he can make her fully recovered in no time."
Mo Ting asked with some skepticism, "You mean your military doctors are more skilled than Green Medicine?"
Yuan Lie said confidently, "Of course! Look, I'm sitting here perfectly fine, aren't I?"
The women in the audience exchanged glances. Perhaps the military doctor really could cure her husband's illness...
At this moment, Shen Yuan suddenly rushed in, took out the prescription from his arms, and said anxiously to Yuan Lie on the dragon throne, "Yuan Lie, I don't care what you're thinking right now, but saving my husband is the most important thing. This is the prescription. Please send someone to brew the medicine for my husband immediately!"
Yuan Lie narrowed his eyes and sneered, "Oh, so there's still one who slipped through the net! Since you've delivered yourself to my doorstep, don't blame me for being ruthless. Men! Tie him up!"
Shen Yuan glanced at Jiang Qingyan, whose face was flushed and who was in Yuan Lie's arms. Cold sweat was beginning to bead on her forehead, indicating that her condition had worsened...
He pleaded, his voice trembling with tears, "Yuan Lie, isn't this Da'an what you want? Take it! We'll take my husband away from here and live a carefree life. We'll never fight you for this world! Please, have someone prepare medicine to save my husband. He's really dying!"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Lie's expression immediately changed. He frowned and said, "You want to take my husband away from here? What kind of daydream are you having? She is mine! She will be the Empress of this world! My only Empress! My woman is none of your concern. I will heal her myself. Stop talking nonsense!"
After saying that, he ordered the guard beside him, "Go and gag him, he's making a lot of noise and it's driving me crazy!"
Shen Yuan scanned the hall and saw that, apart from Mo Ting, everyone else's mouths had been gagged with handkerchiefs.
But Xuan Ye was nowhere to be seen in the hall. Could it be that he also escaped in the chaos?
Yuan Lie looked with satisfaction at the few people below the stage who had obediently surrendered. When his gaze fell on Yi Luo, the killing intent in his eyes instantly surged forth.
This disgusting thing almost killed him!
Yuan Lie pointed to Yi Luo, who had narrowed his scarlet eyes, and said, "You, come here."
After being exposed to the thick smoke, Yi Luo's vision became increasingly blurry, and he could barely see anything.
